INSURANCE.

The all important subject OF to-
day is insurance. 1t is on life and
property; OH land and on sea. The
man who lives now without poll
cy on his life is considered ary-
thing. hut wise. He provides not
for his household. 1t may be said
the same OF fire insurance. Unless
man be rich he cam OF afford to
luild a comfortable home and i've
il it without having it insured
aainst fire, In this day and gen.
CT zion it is hard indeed to tell
who is ones enemy or at what hour
this enemy will burn the roof from
over the heads of your loved ones.
If he is poor man he has had to
rake ahd scrape hard and save every
:arthing in order to build his house
and then for him TO sit carelessly by
and risk the chances of an explode
ing lamp or the incendiarys torch
when only a few dollars gear
would guarantee him against these
things. is foolishness II the rich
man loses his dwelling he can af-
lord to build another, but if the
poor man has his house burned
his wife end children are left out
in the cold to the mercy and chart
ty of the world. There are sever.
al nice farm houses in Terrell but
IS yet. our farmers have not caught
on this insurance business. How
ever there arc many of them who
are gradually opening their eyes to
the fact that it is a very rmpor-
tant matter and are talking aud
thinking it over.

One day last week, Mr.. Slappy,
who lived, this year, on the helms
place above Dawson, came to town
and invited several of the young
men out to a dance to be given at
his house. Several of them who
are very fond of d country dance
were IN quite jolly mood aud
we're heard to sing, We. won't go
home until morning. They went
out and when they arrived at the
place the fire had all gone out and
the house was all dark and Mr..
Slappy moved to foreign parts.
They came back sad'ler, and wiser
n as much as they learned that
Mr. Sleppy had moved to For .
ID. They have decided to quit
dahcing as it is all vanity.

William Wells.

About one mouth ago Nr. William
Wells of SmithvilIe, was SO unfort>
innate as TO get his right arm badly
cut by the saws of cotton gin.
His friends thought he was doing
as well as he could under the CIR
cumstances. 1t was about two
weeks ago, he begun complaining
of an excrutiating pain in his right
leg, and all applications failed to
relieve him. His physician dis
covered that circulation had ceased
below the knee. Daily it contin-
ued to grow worse, that portion OF
the limb being apparently, lifeIess,
and his physician decided that am
putation was the only hope Of sav~
ing his life.
The operation was performed
last Saturday By several prominent
physicians of Americas, SmithvIlle
and pronwood. His leg was taken
off just nelowthe knee Mr.. Wells
stood it finely, and at the last hear
ing there was good prospect OF a
speedy recovery

ALPHA DOTS.

According to previous announce,
ment, the question for debate at
the last meeting Of the Alpha was,
Resolved that the State Road
should be sold. Rather a grave
question for juniors to tackle, es,
pecially when it is remembered
that the legislative wisdom of the
State has had it so long under cons
sideration, and So signally failed in
reaching satisfactory conclusion
in the matter. However there
was no timidity in approaching
the question, or hesitancy in dis
cussing il exhibited by OUR youth
full debaters. T l. Jordan and w
A Jennings we're to represent the
affirmative, and H G Wooten and
J A Shields the negative. BY the
absence Of Mr.. Jennings Mr.. Jor.
dan was left alone to advocate the
sale of the Road,in which he relied
mainly upon the benefit it would
be to the State in enabling her to
pay her debt. The negative was
so well sustained by the advocater
for that side, that the decision was
given against the sale. So this
yexed question its at last settled,
aud the State Road must be leased
again, or else the State must re-
sume its management. When the
other literary exercises were com
pleted, an amendment to the con-
stitution was proposed, as follows,
"That hereafter there be a debate
at every meeting Oh some question,
which shall not be stated. until af,
ter the first dispdtant on the af-
firmative has taken position on
the stage" This will be rather
swere, bit very profitable test
and education of the extemporiz-
ing powers of the boys. The
amendment will be acted on at the
next regular meeting. The ques-
ton for next Friday is, "Rssolved
that the anarchy should not be al
lowed in these United States"
Some Of the strongest debaters in
the Society are appointed on this
question, aud are making careful
preparation.
